You can insert a calculation directly into a text document or into a text table.

Click in the document where you want to insert the calculation, and then press F2. If you are in a table cell, type an equals sign =.
Type the calculation that you want to insert, for example, =10000/12, and then press Enter.

You can also click the Formula icon on the Formula Bar, and then choose a function for your formula.

To reference cells in a Writer text table, enclose the cell address or the cell range in angle brackets. For example, to reference cell A1 from another cell, enter =<A1> into the cell.
